The Gifted ratings are still strong after airing of Episode 6

Below are the ratings for Monday night’s episode 6 of The Gifted on Fox. The show was full of action but also lots of bonding between Reed and his son Andy. We can’t wait for the next episode.

The Gifted FOX superhero sci-fi drama centers on Reed and Caitlin Strucker (Moyer and Acker) and their teenaged children, Lauren (Lind) and Andy (White) — a seemingly normal family. When the kids manifest powers associated with the X-gene, the Struckers must go on the run and seek refuge with the mutants Reed once prosecuted.

This episode was one of bonding amidst danger. It was good to see Reed and Andy bonding as well as Reed and Eclipse (Marcos) also talk about father/son relationships.

The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly in the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. The Gifted is doing well now in the ratings and the show is holding its timeslot pretty well!
